Recom¬ mended for those who like embracing. ★ ★ ★ ★ M-G-M’s new musical, “Living in a Big Way ” will make you merrier. It may make you live in an even bigger way. ★ ★ ★ Gene Kelly and Marie McDonald are the “Boy-meetsGirl” of this hearty, happy picture. ★ ★ ★ ★ Gene is the shiniest dancer — the best “timer” of scenes — and, to our and the public’s mind, one of the very top stars in pictures. He has never been better, not even in “Anchors Aweigh”. How the boy can dance! ★ ★ ★ ★ What originality characterizes his dance plots! The scene in which he does a terpsichorean routine on the girders of an unfinished dream-house is worth your week’s movie allowance. ★ ★ ★ He teeters on a block and tackle, totters on ladders. Sure¬ footed, sure-fire Gene! ★ ★ ★ MarieMcDonald has been bruited about a bit in the columns. She is known as “The Body”. Her curves are classic and where she walks one hears a whistle. ★ ★ ★ In addition to Gene and Marie, you will see Charles Winninger, Phyllis Thaxter, Spring Byington, and others. ★ ★ ★ ★ Gregory La Cava, the director, is also the author, collaborating with Irving Ravetch. Pandro S. Berman, one of our better producers, is the producer. ★ ★ ★ ★ When William James, the philosopher, was asked, “Is life worth living?” he said, “It all depends on the liver”. ★ ★ ★ ★ And if the liver is “living in a big way”, then life has its worth.
